-Now compatible with CyanogenMod too with the help of https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tushar.cmspen you can also download it from here in case that link is not up yet https://www.dropbox.com/s/eebkzugsm7ek12s/CM S-Pen Addon.apk
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] firewater88:
It pauses music when using USB audio out. Tested on a car dock for iBolt. Tested with Google Play Music, Samsung Music player, Rocket Player and music player bundled with Frankenbeats. Running Mean Bean ROM, with its kernel.

Awesome app, great developer! worth the $$ to buy the pro. Thanks again!
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] elijahbrown:
Anyway to get this on GitHub to incorporate into a source built rom?
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:
I do plan on doing that. I might do it later today with an explanation of how it works on it's thread.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:

[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:
v2.0.0 Changelog:

-Changed name to Note Buddy and Icon. New icon is designed by Sergio Ejeda (Dibujor)

Play Music

Pause Music

Toggle Music

Application Shade (more about it ahead)

Note: Stock Samsung player and Google Play Music have been tested by me

-Ability to remove items from the QuickBar and make slots empty

-Reworked a lot of code which makes it easier for me to add more stuff in the future as well as makes the application more efficient. Please clear data for the application once before or after installing newer version. In-case you use this application with Tasker you will have to re create your profile and delete the old one.

-Fixed a bug where sound selection would not work unless the phone was restarted.

-Tweaked layout of application selector a bit as well as a few other minor UI tweaks.

-Application Shade:

Applications, shortcuts or actions can be added

Long pressing an item will delete it

Application shades can be nested

In case you want to use the same shade in two places just use the same name

Automatically dismissed when pen is inserted

Will add some theming options later like size of the shade background and icon later

Is this app does work with Note1 devices running official JB 4.1.2
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] neol23:
404. That’s an error.

The requested URL was not found on this server. That’s all we know. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:
No sorry the Note 1 does not have a detachment sensor :( . If you want to use it only for the headset part it will work

Which one gives this error? Both work for me!
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] :
Beware that as far as I can see there is already an app in play store named note buddy. This might be a problem with your new app name!

Can't wait to see v 2 in action, it looks simply AWESOME!

[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:
Thanks for letting me know but I don't think it should be a problem since that application hasn't been updated in a year and has like 100 downloads :p
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] abelau:
Thanks for this wonderful app!

A suggestion to make this potentially more user-friendly. It would be fantastic to have an additional option not to trigger the detachment app if the handwriting keyboard is active the moment when I detach the S-pen. (because it is likely I am detaching the S-pen to input via the handwriting keyboard)
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:
I will add it in a later version if it is possible I want to let this version settle down now and fix all the bugs before I add anything new.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:
Uploaded v2.0 to the play store. Thanks to all the guys who beta tested it and helped me fix the bugs. Changelog can be found here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=42363484&postcount=248 .
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] :
V2 is awesome, and will be even more by looking at its road map, especially the ui tweaking options coming up (a glossy or holo themed app shade is already in my mind...). Will try it tonight and come back with a few suggestions I might (or might not) think!

Cheers and jeep up the good work!

Galaxy Note II - Alliance Rom
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:
Glad to hear you like it :) . Adding theming options for the Application Shade is a bit lower on my priority list, right now I'm working on adding widgets and more actions and a blacklist for auto-launch.

First things first! ;)

Looks like you are going to deliver us a lot of goodies, waiting eagerly for the next updates!!

Funny - the app in appdrawer still says "S Pen Helper", when I start it it's "Note Buddy".

Works well though... ;)
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:
Thanks for voting :)

Thanks :)

Thats strange have you maybe changed the name of the application using the settings in Nova or some other launcher which has that feature because it shows Note Buddy for me in the Application Drawer
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] neol23:
I am using nova, but did not changed the name though.

That's why is funny... The app still run great, so no biggy ;).

-Added a new action Open Website

-Fixed a bug where the headset insert would get re triggered when the headset was attached for long

Transitioned from Everything Free-Good people pay to Less free features-More people pay :P
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] pemell:
How do I get this to work :

"-Application selected for auto-launch will close when S Pen is inserted/Headset is removed"

I did buy the pro version but the app don't close when I insert the spen.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:
Try enabling and disabling the service because it does for me like it used to before this update. If it still doesn't work then please email me
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] neol23:
How can I add more than 3 shortcuts in notification in the last version?

I'm glad you liked it :) and thanks for buying the pro version.

sorry didnt get what do you mean by "event monitor from add on"

it didnt work with disabling/enabling the service...

When you open the add on application does it show a message saying not compatible?

If not you just have to click the button I have circled in the image for it to work

I tried the updated Note Buddy but decided to go back to S Pen Helper because I like the fact it closes the app when you put the pen back in.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:
Here is version 2.0.1 http://db.tt/KMGgNXVz
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] Kellicros:
Thanks for this wonderful app! It makes my CM10 Note2 feels like Note2 again, I bought the premium version right away. One question though, it is possible to dismiss apps launched by Application Shade upon insertion of Spen?

Would really like to see such feature in future, also, theming of the Application Shade would be great, changeable icons at least. Thanks and keep up the great work!
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:
That is possible but not desirable in my opinion. I'm not sure what you mean by changeable icons, change icons of the applications or the icon of the shade?
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] Kellicros:
Indeed, it would be great to be able to use custom icon on the application shade, for us who wants to match the icons with our custom launchers.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:
v2.2.0 out

-Added a new Action : Lock Phone

-Added auto lock when S Pen is inserted

-Added Smart Lock mode for auto lock. Device will be locked only if it was locked when S Pen was detached.

-Added option to make the notification icon's transparent for Note devices in which the default notification cannot be disabled.

Dude this was a great app but lately it's giving me problems continuously! I insert S Pen, the detachment notification is still there. 2 times already I exited office and saw the notification in my car and rushed back to office thinking I left the S Pen, without even bothering to check it's place holder and then I realized it was a false notification!

When I was on earlier versions, name was S Pen Helper that time, I didn't really face any problems, but now I had to uninstall it.

I'm on ARHD, Stock kernel.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:
I'll look into it. I don't know why that is happening never happens to me. Are you using a task killer or anything of that sort?
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] jujuburi:
No bro, no task killer or anything. I've that patcher installed, the one starts with L, that's all.

It works on Pacman 4.3. You must have the add-on and have the screen polling feature enabled for it to detect the S-pen. Awesome app! It was one of the only things I missed about touchwiz.

No it's not possible. But it is something I can add in the next version. For now you can use Tasker to do that.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] StormRoBoT:
hi, do you have the s-pen pointer?

im using the same rom as you, but it doesnt seem to have the pointer when the s-pen hovering on the screen
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] Kellicros:
Is there a way to reinstate the Samsung's "Walk away sensor" on AOSP rom? maybe via tasker with this? Thank you. If that is not possible then how about a notification sound every x seconds when the pen is detached? any one knows of such Tasker Profile?
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] mgutt:
I'm using Note Buddy with the Note 3, TouchWiz and PIN Lockscreen with 30 seconds timeout. There seems to be a bug in Note Buddy causing ignoring the timeout. This means the Lockscreen is shown directly if I remove the pen.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:
Aosp/cm based ROMs don't have the pointer it's a Samsung feature.

This is currently not possible through my application but I plan on adding it to the add-on later. Can't do it now as I am busy with practical exams and then I have the written exams within 15 days of the practicals ending. You can do the sound thing with Tasker but I don't think anyone has made such a profile so you will have to make it yourself.

Android doesn't allow any application to by pass your security so I don't think it is happening because of my application. I don't face this problem on the note 2 and don't have a note 3 to check.

If anyone else is using this application on the note 3 and facing the same issue please post here.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] mgutt:
After the pen switches the screen off the Lockscreen appears with the power button as well. But if I use the power button only the timeout works as expected.

If I use the power button, unlock and use the power button again and remove the pen afterwards the lockscreen does not appear as well.

Conclusion: If the pen switches the screen off the lockscreen timeout is ignored. If the power button switches off the screen the timeout is considered.

I asked other Note 3 users. I will forward their experience.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:
Please can you tell me what have you set as the time out for the phone to get locked after the screen is turned off. You can find it in the lock screen tab of the settings on the note 2.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] mgutt:
As I said in my first post. 30 seconds. Instant lock is deactivated.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] mgutt:
It would be nice if you can add pen gestures/actions.

e.g. the Samsung Note 3 S-Pen opens the actionmemo app if I double-click with pressed s-pen button. Or I'm able to long press to open the air command. But I'm not able to change that action. Maybe you can overwrite it?!
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] mgutt:
I've tested this now with Llama. I choosed a setting that switches off the display and it has the same problem. Looks like it is a bug related to Samsung :(
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] wruster:
Hi, I have bought Note Buddy Pro, but how can I open action memo popup directly (not the main app)?
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] mgutt:
Good question. I think action memo needs to be called with an extra parameter to call the popup only.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:
Enable it in your system settings and disable the auto launch feature of my application.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] mgutt:
I found a solution for the delay problem. Accidentally I found this app to avoid the lockscreen at my home wifi and my cars bluetooth and this app is also able to globally set a timeout for the lockscreen:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.delayedlock2

But I found two new things:

1.) I like to have the s-pen sound optionally leaned on the system volume (+/- xx%)

2.) If a sound is active the WakeLock Detector shows AudioOut_2 as wakelock for several hours per day (normally < 2 minutes in 24 hours)

The last point is the reason why I shut off the sound by now.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tushar9989:
The relative sound thing is a feature of the pro version. Also I have the sounds enabled and I don't have any wake locks, it's probably due to some other applications or when music is playing or you are using something related to media like games, movies etc.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] firewater88:
Decided to try CM 11 (4.4) on my Note II, and surprisingly it works pretty good. Installed the CM add-on and it worked great. Changed over to ART from Dalvik and getting an error when starting the app that it is not compatible with this device and SU was denying access after the reboot of enabling ART. Running 4.4 home screen and stock CM.

*EDIT*- Hold off on that, apparently the SU installed with stock 4.4 does not like ART. Switching back to Dalvik and switching to SuperSU (compatible with 4.4- ART) and trying again.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] mgutt:
The wakelock is not huge. I think its because of inserting the pen while the device is in wakelock and will be woke up again.

I'm using the pro version and I did not realize that the sound is relative as I was changing the wrong volume type ;)
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] ytgbg:
Very useful app for all AOSP roms!

Great app. It always worked on any AOSP rom that I installed on my Note 2.
